Marla Singer Didn't Exist

Pages

After a good, long run, we have decided to close our forums in an effort to refocus attention to other sections of the site. Fortunately for you all, we're living in a time where discussion of a favorite topic now has a lot of homes. So we encourage you all to bring your ravenous love for discussion to Chuck's official Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr and Instagram. And, as always, you can still post comments on all News updates. Thank you for your loyalty and passion over the years. These changes will happen June 1.

Found this crazy link, while looking for treacherous pics of Ms. Marla.
I'm annoyed that he writes as if Fincher made up the entire Fight Club story and doesn't seem to credit Chuck much.
But, he seems to have a point.

I watched Sesame Street with my kids and was shocked to find out that other people can see Mr. Snuffleupagus. When did this happen? He was always Big Bird's imaginary friend--and when other people came to see Big bird, he'd disappear.

That and the fact that half the show is devoted to Elmo was quite disturbing to me.

They can see Snuffy now?
I always liked the creep factor that Snuffy added, when I was a child. So much intrigue, and I wondered lightly about the psychology of children with mental issues. The mystery of Snuffy lent a greater degree of character to the show. Like a tiny twilight zone skit for kids. Yeah.

It's Elmos's world now. I miss Grover being on top. He was so nappy. clumsy
and lovable!

I broke a rule? There's another post like this?
Dang. Sorry. How do I dissolve this thread?

No, it was me. I hi-jacked your thread with the Sesame Street comment. I'm sorry for that but it was literally the first thing that came to mind after reading your post.

Oh thats cool, I love this convo. B-)

I want to give this thread a prize.

I'm glad you like it! It feels like it was inevitable, for this site.

I see a lot of Marla (minus the insatiable- I'm quite satiable- sex and stealing) in me, when I was younger. Cigarettes (2 and 1/2 packs day), a wardrobe of identical black leather skirts, dragging around the art shows and clubs, general ennui. I'm much more productive now.

I just sometimes wish your name wasn't Newgirl, because, you know, you'll always be that new girl and, no matter what, we'll never really know you. Because you're new. Ten years from now, That girl? I dunno, she's new...

I don't think she'll always be "new." I think that when we get all cozy and comfortable with her, the word "new" will have lost all of its meaning in our lives. Whenever someone asks us if we got a new haircut, we'll be all confused for a split second, wolves flashing in our heads, before we can answer.

Newgirl is a good addition. We will keep you around. Most new people talk about punch geese and then start a war with Pepper and my fowl army.

But You Newgirl have done a good job. Not to intrusive. Making good threads and adding to ones already in play.
There are picture threads you are going to have to take part in. Dont have to show your face but cool whatnots would be good.

IF Tuffy likes you, your'e in.

Also I work with a guy with PTSD he just walked by mumbling to himself saying stay frosty. I think he has imaginary friends.
I am babbling this morning, not enough sleep.

There's not going to be anymore Elmo. Not after the Kevin Clash sex scandal.

And I like you too Newgirl

I think they can get another dude to do the voice. Also I kind of believe and feel sorry for the guy. He seems pretty honest about the whole thing. He's all like "Hey I've been out for some time and we had a relationship and he wasn't underage." So like whatever this could just be the result of a bad breakup. Anywho my Emma loves Elmo.

If I had an imaginary self, I've often thought it would be me in the future. Or now, me in the past. Is anyone else like that?
This how I sort looked in the past, so this is pretty much how an imaginary friend would look to me (the dark punk/gothish girl). I guess the old adage is true for me, "you are your own best friend"

Don't want to take over other people's threads. Plus, it's still about Marla. So, here goes.
This is the second sketch:
I like the fact that, she looks like she cut her bob with a Cuisinart and the 80s rat tail at her neck is crooked on the side. Because she would go purposely Gummo on the hair.

Puffed sleeve black t-shirt, with two cigarette burns that turned into rips below the collar, and a mullet hem line at the bottom. Neon blue capri jeans. Mint ankle boots.
I'm calling her active wear, "Mud, honey." Because Amber reminded me of how cool that band was. And Mark Arm is funny as shyt.
